I, who was reincarnated as the villain character in a game, was secretly enjoying my role as the villain while pulling off heroic moves behind the scenes. However, my actions were exposed to my fiancée, who absolutely despises me - Episode 27

Episode 27

“You just came recently, but is it okay to come so frequently?”

Until now, it was about once a month, but lately, Reem has been coming about once a week.

Well, since there are teleportation stones, the travel itself must be quite easy, but is it really okay to come so often?

When I asked that, Reem puffed out her cheeks slightly.

“Can’t I come to see you?”

“Nah, it’s not like that.”

However, I couldn’t help but wonder why she was coming to see me so often.

“Lord Reis can’t go to social gatherings, right? I always feel lonely since I can’t be with anyone in such places.”

The engagement between me and Reem is already well-known among many nobles.

Women like her may interact with other nobles at social gatherings, but they never move around with the opposite sex. Generally, they are supposed to accompany their partners or fiancés.

By the way, social gatherings, dinners, dances… Similar events are held almost every week under different names.

Thanks to teleportation stones, it seems that large buildings in the royal capital are often used as venues.

As Reem mentioned earlier, I almost never participate in these events.

The reason is like Cinderella. It’s a mean trick by my family to brag to me later.

My family apparently decided to bully me this much because I was ridiculed by the surrounding nobles when they found out I was an unfortunate spatial magic user. It seems like it’s their way of getting back at me.

Since I have absolutely no interest in such things, and not participating gives me time for training, which is great, but it seems Reem is feeling a bit lonely.

She probably wouldn’t have expressed such an opinion if it were our first meeting.

It seems my standing has improved somewhat, which makes me happy.

“I’m sorry for making you feel lonely… But either way, I’m not good in those kinds of situations, and I don’t think I’d enjoy them.”

“…Just being together is enjoyable. Besides, I want to dance with you.”

I think it’s fine as long as we’re together here, but if I tell her those words directly, she’ll puff out her cheeks again.

Nevertheless, she’s become quite good at enjoying compliments.

With the current Reem, she seems capable of handling sales anywhere.

While faintly recalling my past life as a corporate slave, I smile at Reem.

“Well, I do feel like joining you at these events with you, but my family is strict.”

“…That’s true.”

Seeing Reem look down, I stand up with a wry smile.

“Still, there might come a time when I’ll join. So, can you teach me how to dance so I won’t be embarrassed when that time comes?”

“Here and now?”

“Yeah.”

“Leave it to me.”

Upon hearing my request, Reem happily got up from her seat.

Since she mentioned wanting to dance earlier, it would be better to do it together here.
